| That's a very famous... | ||
| People aren't here. | ||
| The evil empire was a very profound statement. | ||
| Tony served as a White House advisor throughout my first term and most recently was a special assistant to president on domestic policy and the Domestic Policy Council. | ||
| He passed away early Monday morning and his family... | ||
| He's devastated, to be honest. | ||
| They're devastated. | ||
| A couple of the family members are here, but they're devastated. | ||
| He was a great person, a great, brilliant writer. | ||
| And so he will be very greatly missed. | ||
| And Tony is looking down on us right now, and he was so proud of what he did and his heritage. | ||
| He was so proud of his heritage. | ||
| So I want to thank him and his family for the incredible job they did. | ||
| Once again, let me wish everyone a very happy St. Patrick's Day. | ||
| And with that, I would like to ask Taoiseach, Martin, to say a few words. | ||
| He's a very, very special man in Ireland. | ||
| As you probably know, he's a very popular guy, which is not easy in Ireland. | ||
| And it's an honor to have both Mary and Michael here with us, because we really, we've gotten to know each other very well, and they're great people. | ||
| Thank you very much, everybody. | ||

President Trump, distinguished guests, it is a singular honour to represent the people of Ireland as we gather to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. | |
| The time-honoured tradition of the Shamrock Bowl ceremony is an important moment to reflect upon the relationship between our two countries. | ||
| Mr. President, as you said on an earlier St. Patrick's Day, and I quote, Ups and downs, thick and thin, the extraordinary Irish people have stood by America's side, and America will always stand by theirs. | ||
| Our peoples have stood side by side for a long time, and next year the United States marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. | ||
| Of the 56 signatories of that historic document, three were born on the island of Ireland, and many others were of Irish descent. | ||
| Since then, Irish America has been at the heart of shaping this great nation. | ||
| The ideals of liberty, democracy and equality of opportunity forged in this country did much to inspire Irish independence. | ||
| Our histories are interconnected because our people are interconnected. | ||
| Today, as the President has said, more than 30 million people claim Irish ancestry in the United States. | ||
| Those who came to America seeking refuge from poverty and hunger at home worked hard. | ||
| They helped build the railroads that connected this country and the skylines that defined it. | ||
| Others served their communities and their adopted home as firefighters, teachers, nurses, doctors, policemen and soldiers. | ||
| Irish people can now be found in almost every industry and community across the United States. | ||
| Mr. President, Irish Americans have lived the American dream. | ||
| I saw that for myself earlier this week in the great state of Texas, where I met Governor Greg Abbott. | ||
| Attended South by Southwest and learned about exciting economic opportunities that abound in their own star state. | ||
| I met with Texan-based companies using Ireland as a gateway into the European market as well as the Irish companies investing in and buying from Texas. | ||
| All across the United States, men and women go to work every morning in Irish-owned companies. | ||
| In the US economy, operating in every sector, in every state. | ||
| Some of your great American manufacturing companies count Irish buyers as their top client, with order books worth many billions of dollars supporting the jobs of thousands of fantastic American workers. | ||
| Ireland is now in the top ten as a source of foreign direct investment in the United States. | ||
| not bad for a small island. | ||
| Ireland likes to trade with the United States and the United States likes to do business with Ireland because we are strong and reliable partners. | ||
| Mr. President, let's do even more and better together. | ||
| In the past, Irish labourers came to help build the new republic, the beacon on the hill. | ||
| They even built this beautiful White House. | ||
| They built the roads and the railroads that made this mighty union possible. | ||
| Today, Irish companies are building the infrastructure connecting the United States in the 21st century. | ||
| Throughout our great shared history, Ireland has played a role in bringing America closer. | ||
| In doing so, we've been proud to help make this country great. | ||
| Mr. President, American companies continue to invest in Ireland, where our access to the European market, talented workforce and consistent and stable business environment makes us one of the best places in the world to do business. | ||
| And just like our peoples and cultures, our economies are deeply interconnected. | ||
| Investment in Ireland helps American companies sell their products across the world. | ||
| Our island is home to a people with an outward perspective, generations of whom have looked to the United States for opportunity and inspiration. | ||
| We've built prosperity through free and fair trade with partners all over the world, and particularly here in these United States. | ||
| Let us continue to build on that foundation, bringing ever-growing prosperity to both our great peoples. | ||
| Let us continue to work together. | ||
| To make sure that we maintain that mutually beneficial two-way economic relationship that has allowed innovation and creativity and prosperity to thrive. | ||
| Mr. President, on St. Patrick's Day in 1981, in this House, President Ronald Reagan spoke of a just and peaceful solution to the conflict in Northern Ireland. | ||
| And that was the start of an extraordinary journey. | ||
| Seventeen years later, after enormous effort and commitment and dialogue and disagreement and sheer perseverance, we signed the Good Friday Agreement. | ||
| We signed a just and lasting peace into being. | ||
| And the United States of America was at the very center of that magical moment of hope and inspiration. | ||
| Successive presidents, Republican and Democrat, cared enough to put in the late nights, the persuading, The cajoling, the negotiating, the encouraging, the influencing. | ||
| And Mr. President, 3,720 people were killed in that conflict and close to 50,000 people were injured. | ||
| In per capita terms, that's many millions of Americans. | ||
| And just imagine that for a moment in terms of the scale of what happened. | ||
| It was the support of the United States of America. | ||
| That was essential in bringing that to an end. | ||
| One of the greatest achievements of American foreign policy with heartfelt commitment from both sides of the aisle. | ||
| The story of peace in Ireland is one that we wrote together. | ||
| We know building peace is a difficult and painstaking task. | ||
| But when the mighty United States of America puts its shoulder to the wheel, there is no mountain it cannot move. | ||
| Mr. President, I welcome the unrelenting focus and energy you have brought to the search for peace in Ukraine and in the Middle East since your first days in office. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| In my view, there is nothing more noble, President, than the pursuit of peace. | ||
| And this is what you are doing. | ||
| Ireland is ready to work with you and our international partners to end conflict and especially to bring just, lasting and sustainable peace to the people of Ukraine and the people lasting and sustainable peace to the people of Ukraine and the people of the Conflict and war hurt the most vulnerable. | ||
| Too many children in particular have died in Gaza, in Israel, in Sudan, and too many children have been abducted in Ukraine. | ||
| Let us together never cease to strive for peace, prosperity, and opportunity for all the world's children. | ||
| That would be an extraordinary achievement for the transatlantic relationship and an extraordinary legacy for the ages. | ||
| Mr. President... | ||
| County Clare is one of the most beautiful places on this art. | ||
| And Doonbeg is one of its finest jewels. | ||
| One of Ireland's finest poets, and we've had a few, as you know, wrote of the beauty of County Clare along the flaggy shore in September or October when the wind and the light are working off each other. | ||
| And Heaney wrote of how Ireland can catch the heart off guard and blow it open. | ||
| I have been to that part of Clare, and I know that that is true. | ||
| Mr. President, I hope that we can welcome you to Ireland soon to catch your own heart off guard. | ||
| You know better than anyone the beauty of Dunbeg, a place that would take anyone's breath away. | ||
| Goed o'fmíle a maithagot. | ||
| Banachdí na féle pádrig arhuv gilair. | ||
| Thank you very much indeed, and happy St. Patrick's Day to you all. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Time-honoured tradition, I'm going to present the bowl of shamrock to President Trump. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| You're seeing the East Room with the Irish music right there, the Irish folk music. | ||
| Captain Mo Bannon danced to a little bit of that when she was a little girl. | ||
| Right there you see a room full of mix. | ||
| President Trump with many friends, obviously from New York. | ||
| Don McGahn, a former White House counsel. | ||
| I want to hold that shot right there. | ||
| They're just a really festive group as the Irish are with that tremendous music. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was interesting. | |
| I guess the decision was made. | ||
| You could tell when they first walked up, there was only one podium. | ||
| There was not going to be a press conference because it couldn't take questions. | ||
| We're going to play later some of the cuts from the Oval Office with the, what, Tasek? | ||
| Also, some of the magnificent words he said right there by President Trump as a man of peace. | ||
| Oh no, we ought to keep this going as long as possible. | ||
| I could listen to Irish music all night long. | ||
| The East Room. | ||
| So great that Real America's Voice now is a... | ||
| Real America's Voice is now an official White House correspondent entity. | ||
| Brian Glenn is going to head back over to our place on Pebble Beach. | ||
| Outside the West Wing. | ||
| And we're going to get Brian for his thoughts. | ||
| Brian's been covering this all day. | ||
| We had Brian there, hopefully, for some questions that didn't happen. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| Let's have the whole shot, guys. | ||
| People see enough of my beautiful visage for four hours a day. | ||
| We're going to get back to that full shot. | ||
| You're getting kicked out. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| You're getting kicked out, but that's okay. | ||
| Give him the hook. | ||
| Can I still listen to the music? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe not. | |
| I'll take it right now. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| Okay, I got it. | ||
| Right there. | ||
| How beautiful. | ||
| Some great statements. | ||
| President Trump. | ||
| And President Trump has so many Irish friends in New York City, including, you know, so many of the fire department, the police, all of it. | ||
| So many friends at his club there at Bedminster and down at Palm Beach. | ||
| We're going to go now. | ||
| We're kind of crammed for time, but Brian Glenn's going to go back over to our perch on Pebble Beach. | ||
| We're going to get Brian in to talk about the day's activities. | ||
| Of course, breaking news. | ||
| The Democrats don't think anything come across the wire. | ||
| Schumer says the Democrats don't have the votes to break cloture. | ||
| That means it looks like they're not going to be able to basically stop. | ||
| Or support the CR. According to them, right now, unless they come up with another plan, the House is out. | ||
| What you're going to have is a shutdown of the government at midnight on Friday. | ||
| We'll get more details on that later. | ||
| In court today, the judges are stopping the executive order against the law firms. | ||
| Perkins Coy, which you know is the nest of demons, have been coming after President Trump and the MAGA movement for many, many years, including the Russia hoax. | ||
| Also, this controversial, I believe you're going to see a money laundering scheme, or it's money laundering right now. | ||
| We have North, they have $20 billion, ended up at Citicorp, $27 billion allocated, money wired all over the place. | ||
| There's a group with $100,000 in the bank that said they're owed $6.9 billion. | ||
| They're supposed to come from one of these scams, and they're in court suing for it, and the judge is hearing it, no decisions on either of them. | ||
| And we had Brother Spencer Morrison on earlier. | ||
| To talk about the tariffs, all mainstream media is talking about all day long. | ||
| It's tariffs, tariffs, tariffs. | ||
| Of course, Spencer Morrison was able to make some sense of it. | ||
| I want to go now. | ||
| We've got Rebecca Bextel from Wyoming. | ||
| She's running for the Wyoming GOP, and this is a highly contested race. | ||
| Rebecca, you join us. | ||
| Tell us, I hear that you're pure MAGA, ma'am. | ||
| Is that true? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's 100% true, Steve. | |
| Thank you so much for having me today. | ||
| So I'm running for chairman. | ||
| You're running for chairman. | ||
| What is your platform? | ||
| Why you, and why are you more MAGA, and why are you the best representative of President Trump in our movement in the great state of Wyoming, ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I was a President Trump supporter from the very beginning. | |
| Wyoming is a solidly Republican state, and we were very excited to see him win for a third term here recently. | ||
| He's doing a great job. | ||
| In Wyoming, our elections happen in the primary because it's usually Republican against Republican. | ||
| In the last election, I helped raise $300,000 to get that. | ||
| Conservatives elected in the House. | ||
| I believe we're the only state in the country where the Freedom Caucus is in charge. | ||
| We were able to get some really good bills passed. | ||
| We just finished our legislative session, and Wyoming repealed all the gun-free zones. | ||
| So you could have a gun in Wyoming anywhere except in a courtroom. | ||
| If you're in a government building, you need a concealed carry permit. | ||
| And obviously children at school can't have guns, but the rest of the state is constitutional carry now. | ||
| I'd like to see the 23 planks of the Wyoming Republican platform enacted in policy legislation, and I'm going to work really hard to do that. | ||
| I have a lot of energy, thanks in large part to my 2.0 Mike Lindell pillow I sleep on every night, and I'm ready to take this on. | ||
| I also... | ||
| And it's not, hold it, it's not promo code Rebecca, it's promo code War Room. | ||
| Promo code War Room, not promo code Rebecca. | ||
| Just want to make sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| In 2020, the Wyoming Republican Party sent out an email asking for volunteers to canvas in Michigan and Wisconsin, and my sister and I volunteered. | ||
| We knocked on 1,200 doors right there in Pontiac. | ||
| Didn't meet a single person that was for the Green New Deal. | ||
| Didn't meet a single person for Open Borders. | ||
| It was a wonderful experience. | ||
| I was also at the Trump rally for our wonderful Congresswoman Harriet Hageman. | ||
| Thank goodness we got rid of Liz Cheney. | ||
| What a disaster she was for us here in Wyoming. | ||
| But I'm going to work hard. | ||
| I think the platform, we took a 55-page platform and reduced it to a single page with 23 planks, God-given rights. | ||
| And I'm going to work really hard to see that enacted around here. | ||
| Give us the state of plight. | ||
| Look, we're the platform for the precinct strategy, and we've had so many people volunteer and come from different walks of life and go to this precinct service, win the precincts, win the county level, get up to the state. | ||
| And what we're hearing now that we're a couple of years into this, right, like four or five years, that people are saying still there's a big resistance. | ||
| By either the business community or the donors or the more establishment wing of the Republican Party. | ||
| Do you have that issue in Wyoming or have you guys already sorted that out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We do. | |
| We have some wonderful, like our Secretary of State Chuck Gray works really hard on voter integrity issues. | ||
| He and Mike Lindell should be best friends. | ||
| We lost a few bills this session. | ||
| So they passed in the House, but we could not get through an illegal immigration bill brought by Senator Sherry Steinmetz. | ||
| We lost a few voter integrity bills, and we also lost a runoff election bill. | ||
| Governor Gordon, I think it's so funny when I lead the state and I hear that he's the most popular governor in all 50 states. | ||
| That's certainly not the case or how we feel here in Wyoming. | ||
| But he won in the primary the first time with 34% of the vote. | ||
| And I'm pretty sure his favorability has gone down from there. | ||
| In the House- You know, we've got things under control. | ||
| Speaker Nyman, Chip Nyman does a great job. | ||
| John Bayer used to run the House Freedom Caucus. | ||
| Now it's Rachel Rodriguez-Williams. | ||
| They're doing a great job. | ||
| But we've had some issues in the Senate, and I look forward to some changes there in two years. | ||
| For example, President Trump, a very successful real estate developer. | ||
| We just lost a bill. | ||
| It was called Senate File 40, and it was to stop unconstitutional housing mitigation fees. | ||
| The reason the Senate claimed they couldn't pass it is a procedural issue. | ||
| I live in the only blue dot in the whole state. | ||
| So I live in Teton County right here in Jackson Hole. | ||
| If you want to build a house or if you want to develop your land, you are required to pay for someone else's housing through housing mitigation fees. | ||
| So they actually have a worksheet where you figure out what you pay. | ||
| Unelected bureaucrats pick who lives on your land if you're developing new land. | ||
| And I brought a bill. | ||
| To stop that, and we couldn't get it done. | ||
| The Wyoming Constitution clearly states that private property rights cannot be infringed upon without just compensation. | ||
| That's not what's happening here. | ||
| We could have solved this major problem here in Teton County by just passing Senate File 40. Now, I know the Pacific Legal Foundation is looking at this case. | ||
| It's going to cost a lot of money and take years. | ||
| Why couldn't we get that done in the Senate? | ||
| The answer is... | ||
| Some rhinos. | ||
| We would be remiss. | ||
| Talking about rhinos, you're at least the political home for Liz Cheney. | ||
| Since she actually was active and going on platforms with Kamala Harris and others, what's the sense of the Liz Cheney wing of the Wyoming Republican Party? | ||
|
unidentified
|
There are a couple of... | |
| People, I guess, in the state that still support her. | ||
| You know, our Republican Party actually censored her. | ||
| And we didn't censor her just because she's an angry person or she doesn't represent Wyoming. | ||
| She was actually censored by our state party because she was denying President Trump his constitutional rights. | ||
| She was on Twitter right after January 6th. | ||
| He had no due process. | ||
| She just assumed he was guilty for something and started tweeting about it. | ||
| Meanwhile, in Wyoming, we vote more per capita for President Trump than any other state, and we're very proud of that. | ||
| So she's just not aligned with the grassroots, the average people here in Wyoming. | ||
| You know, we can't get rid of her. | ||
| We keep hearing stories about when she was running against Congresswoman Hageman, and she would tell her staff to go find her some cowboy boots and scuffle them up or go find her a pair of jeans. | ||
| She's not from here. | ||
| She lives in Virginia, and we are so blessed to have real representation. | ||
| My husband and I are small business owners, and we have a lot of customers around the world. | ||
| We'll get videos from customers in Australia or Austria with Congresswoman Hageman grilling Mayorkas on a hearing. | ||
| She makes us proud every single day that she is our sole representative in Congress. | ||
| And I think Senator Lummis is doing a great job as well, and Senator Brasso. | ||
| So we've got to get rid of a few folks. | ||
| I'd like to see some changes in the Senate. | ||
| For example, but the grassroots movement is real. | ||
| Here in Teton County, where Liz supposedly lived, so many Democrats switched to vote for her that we ended up with 78 precinct seats. | ||
| We normally have maybe 38 or 40. And we were able, for the first time ever, to completely take back Teton County's GOP last Tuesday for conservatives. | ||
| I tracked people down in Hayfield. | ||
| Some guy had eyeball surgery. | ||
| I just printed the form and showed up at his house. | ||
| I was elected the state committee woman for Teton County. | ||
| But we're going to slowly take back some of these pockets of socialism like we have here in Teton County. | ||
| One of the things I've been extremely vocal about, I started a group called Save the Rodeo and Fairgrounds. | ||
| But it's just what President Trump talks about. | ||
| These unelected bureaucrats have too much power. | ||
| We have historic fairgrounds in downtown Jackson Hole. | ||
| It's a very beautiful story of how they came to be owned by the town. | ||
| They've been owned there since 1941. Well, an unelected bureaucrat just started filling out federal grants for low-income housing and identified 10% of the fairgrounds for that. | ||
| We really fought hard to mobilize the community. | ||
| They didn't follow the rules. | ||
| We lost that battle. | ||
| But if anybody wants to learn more about that, I know the Jackson Hole Rodeo is a big deal, and people love to come and see that. | ||
| We lose the fairgrounds, we lose the rodeo. | ||
| Savetherodeogrounds.com is where you can get more information for that. | ||
| But we have to stop these unconstitutional policies. | ||
| Like when you have to build or pay for someone else's house as a term of building your own house. | ||
| That's clearly unconstitutional. | ||
| That clearly has to stop. | ||
| I don't know why we couldn't get it done in the Senate. | ||
| Rebecca, when is the election? | ||
|

|
May 3rd. | |
| And if I may, my website for my campaign is RebeccaForWyoming.com And on Twitter, I'm Rebecca Bextell. | ||
| Thank you for showing that. | ||
| That's actually my husband and I on the back of a motorcycle with a Wyoming for Trump flag. | ||
| But I'm very proud of President Trump. | ||
| I'm very proud to be an American. | ||
| I grew up in Alabama. | ||
| I've been in Wyoming 20 years. | ||
| I'm a proud member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. | ||
| My mother's family's been here literally since the beginning. | ||
| Just being farmers, we fought in every war. | ||
| We couldn't even sign our name on the census form. | ||
| But I'm very proud of my family's history in this country. | ||
| And I'm very proud of this country. | ||
| This is the greatest country on earth. | ||
| And thank God that President Trump is back in office. | ||
| And thank God that there are patriots out there like Mike Lindell and others that are fighting for our rights, our Bill of Rights in Wyoming. | ||
| This is the great, I think, no offense to everyone else, I think this is the greatest state in the country, and I really hope that I win the chair position for the Wyoming Republican Party. | ||
| I'm going to work so hard. | ||
| So thank you for allowing me the time. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| A daughter of Alabama out in Wyoming and now running and looking to win to represent MAGA as the chairman of the Wyoming GOP. One more time about the... | ||
| Rodeo. | ||
| I know people are going to be wanting to pile into that, both your website for your candidacy and for saving the rodeo grounds, or save the fairgrounds, I guess, to save the rodeo. | ||
| Where did they go for that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They can go to savetherodeogrounds.com, and if I may have 10 more seconds, The woman who started our fairgrounds, her name is Elena Hunt. | |
| She was in an abusive relationship with a very wealthy man in France. | ||
| And she wrote to her aunt, who lived in South Dakota, and said, I've got to get out of this marriage, but I won't leave my children. | ||
| And her aunt said, if you move to Wyoming, you have possession of your minor children. | ||
| We were the first state in the country, first place in the world, where women could inherit property, have rights to their children, and... | ||
| Inherit. | ||
| And that's who started our fairgrounds. | ||
| It used to be called Elena Hart Park, and she loved to race this horse. | ||
| So after the Depression, she was the only person that had any money in the town. | ||
| She put up all the money for the infrastructure. | ||
| It's literally the heart and soul of Jackson Hole. | ||
| And if they take that, if they take our Western heritage, we're not going to ever get it back, Steve. | ||
| Please consider SaveTheRodeoGrounds.com. | ||
| Please consider supporting my run for chair, RebeccaForWyoming.com. | ||
| And I'm at the service of the Republicans here in Wyoming, hopefully pretty soon. | ||
| Thank you. | ||

I appreciate you still hammering the COVID. You know, we couldn't pass a bill in the Senate to say if you've donated blood. | |
| Tell us about your COVID vaccination status. | ||
| I never took the vaccine. | ||
| No one in my family did. | ||
| My children, my husband, nobody. | ||
| If I need blood, I don't want it to have the Myrna vaccine in there or the gene. | ||
| Why can't we get these simple, straightforward things fast here in Wyoming? | ||

| War Room Posse, running for GOP chair. | ||

| Appreciate you. | ||
| Brian Schumel, now we have a cold open. | ||
| Let's go and play a cold open. | ||
| We're going to go to Wisconsin about this debate tonight. | ||
| We're going to stream this debate live on all of our channels, Rumble and Getter and all of them. | ||
| Let's have this cold open. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Supreme Court seat our Milwaukee partner, WISN, hosting that debate, but you can watch it right here on WBAY-TV2. Judge Susan Crawford and former Wisconsin Attorney General Judge Brad Schimmel will face off tonight at 7. It is their only debate before that April 1st election. | |
| Okay, Brian, your Wisconsin GOP chair, break this down for us tonight. | ||
| What should we be looking for? | ||
| What are the topics of the debate going to be, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I suspect the topics, Steve, will be, to me, if I'm Brad Schimmel, I try to make it absolutely clear who the supporters are of Susan Crawford, the liberal in this race, Brad Schimmel, the conservative, and where she's been. | |
| Her record, her public record. | ||
| You know, this is somebody that represented a group. | ||
| That demanded that kids share bathrooms with transgender teachers. | ||
| She called voter ID draconian and served as an attorney for the League of Women Voters when they tried to upend our voter ID law. | ||
| She fought for and represented a major provider of child sex changes. | ||
| She served alongside the Democrat governor, Tony Evers, who attempted to stop all handgun sales at gun shows in Wisconsin. | ||
| So I say to people, I've done a lot of debate prep over the years, and so I always say to people, look, these debates, and by the way, Steve, this is the only debate. | ||
| That they're having. | ||
| And so, important one, right? | ||
| At 7 o'clock Central and 8 o'clock Eastern tonight. | ||
| You want clarity out of these debates. | ||
| I mean, you know, a lot of times people talk about debates and, you know, just don't make any mistakes and all that. | ||
| But to me, as I always say, the victory is out there. | ||
| We just have to go get it. | ||
| We had a poll come out this morning that showed the race even up at 47 apiece. | ||
| I think the independent voters in this state, the Trump voters that need to be inspired to go out and vote in this off-year race, if you provide clarity for them on who Brad Schimmel is and what he's about and who she is and what she's about, Brad Schimmel wins. | ||
| Sir, what is your social media? | ||
| Where do people go to the website? | ||
| Where do they get to you on social media? | ||

Ireland is known for very happy, fun-loving people. | |
| Great attitude, many in this room right now that I've met. | ||
| Why in the world did you let Rosie O'Donnell move to Ireland? | ||
| I think she's going to lower your happiness level. | ||

| People remember what it's like to feel inspired? | ||
| Oh, my God, we had COVID. We had Trump. | ||
| We were trudging through the trenches. | ||
| And, you know, oh, my God, we're inspired again. | ||
| Thank you, Joe Biden, for saving us from a second term of Trump. | ||

President Trump! | |
| He hasn't told him to pay! | ||
| So President Trump, taking it down memory lane, with the Irish Prime Minister today, a reminder from the media that Rosie O'Donnell has left the United States because of the return of President Trump to the White House, and she's now segued to Ireland as kind of a... | ||
| I don't think the Taoiseach knew that. | ||
| They're kind of calling by surprise. | ||
| We've got Brian Glenn. | ||
| I think it's tied up over in the White House, and we wanted to do that. | ||
| Hopefully he's talking to the comm staff, getting more inside scoop. | ||
| Brian's doing such an amazing job. | ||
| Natalie Winters went to a closed press event a little while ago. | ||
| We wanted to be there. | ||
| They're getting tons of information. | ||
| So our White House correspondents are all over doing their job, which is getting that kind of information that you can only get on Real America's Voice in the war room. | ||
| So this morning, David Ignatius, remember, David Ignatius is the spokesman for the Central Intelligence Agency. | ||
| Excuse me, I mean, he's the lead columnist for national security for the Langley Bugle, heretofore called the Jeff Bezos Amazon Washington Post. | ||
| from morning Joe this morning. | ||
| President Trump just got praised by the Prime Minister of Ireland for his efforts in the peace negotiations, ceasefire negotiations for Ukraine. | ||
| Let's go and play what he had to say this morning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So Joe, first it is extremely positive that this terrible war has been going on for three years. | |
| As National Security Advisor Mike Waltz said, it's a meat grinder. | ||
| And trying to stop that meat grinder is something that I think everyone supports, certainly the Ukrainians do. | ||
| Now, it is up to Russia, but I think more to the point, it's up to the Trump administration to pressure Russia to make enough concessions that you have a real negotiation. | ||
| Something important that Secretary Rubio said in announcing this agreement is that he wants it to be enduring and sustainable. | ||
| And that's a kind of code for giving Ukraine enough security that it can be confident that six months, a year, two years after the agreement is made, Russian troops won't simply resume the war and move towards Kyiv. | ||
| A lot of us think that Putin has never really given up his desire to suppress Ukraine as an independent nation. | ||
| This is going to be hard bargaining. | ||
| Russia does not want the kind of security guarantees that Ukraine is talking about and that we're part of the conversation in Jeddah. | ||
| Talk about just how comfortable Vladimir Putin would be with this war continuing for six months to a year. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, Jill, the Russians are estimated to have lost nearly 800,000 casualties, dead and wounded, in three years. | |
| That is more than 10 times as many as they lost in the 10 years that they fought in Afghanistan. | ||
| It is an incredible price that they've been paying. | ||
| To me, this war from the beginning, going back to 2014, has been about whether Ukraine could be a European country. | ||
| That's the dream of Ukrainians. | ||
| And Russia, from the beginning, has been trying to stop that. | ||
| And whatever the borders of the future Ukraine are, the key issue to watch, I think, is whether that country is allowed to be sovereign and European. | ||
| And, you know, for that to happen, Putin's going to have to give up his hope of crushing that European identity. | ||
| But that's the question in a nutshell. | ||
| That's what the White House should focus on as they think about the next phase of negotiations. | ||
| Putin is vulnerable. | ||
| This idea that Putin's on a roll, uh-uh. | ||
| He is vulnerable. | ||
| But it's going to take pressure for the United States. | ||
| Otherwise, it's going to be a concessionary deal to Putin. | ||
| This is the same madness right here. | ||
| And this is insanity. | ||
| You have a million dead and wounded Ukrainians. | ||
| You have Ignatius right there from the CIA. A mouthpiece saying there's 800,000 dead and wounded Russians. | ||
| 1.8 million people either dead or wounded. | ||
| And why? | ||
| $350 billion of your money that didn't go to the $170 billion we know it's going to take to get the illegal aliens deported to this country. | ||
| Not the $250 billion it's going to take. | ||
| To restore Southern California from the fires, not the, I don't know, $50 billion going to take in Appalachia? | ||
| And over and over and over again, $350 billion. | ||
| You know what the goal is? | ||
| They finally say it. | ||
| So that Ukraine could be a European country. | ||
| We don't give a damn about whether Ukraine is Eurasian, Russian, or European, and we're certainly not prepared to underwrite on our nickel The deaths of 1.8 million people to prove that. | ||
| This is why these jackals, and we said it on the eve of this war three years ago, this was going to happen. | ||
| And now they're all puffed up. | ||
| And the first part of that, security guarantee means your sons and daughters, your sons and daughters in Ukraine as hostages. | ||
| Human shields and hostages. | ||
| These people are revolting. | ||
| This is why, this is what this whole effort's about, to shatter the deep state. | ||
| Ignatius is the perfect, see how puffed up he is, got the glasses, and he's thinking great thoughts. | ||
| Those are big thoughts. | ||
| The blood on the hands of the Morning Joe crew, the blood on the hands of MSNBC, every single night, over and over and over again. | ||
| And what do we have? | ||
| Oh, now, now, because we've just opened up aid to them, military aid, more financial aid, and of course, sharing of intelligence. | ||
| And what do they want? | ||
| They keep pushing. | ||
| This is why Zelensky got turfed out of the White House two weeks ago. | ||
| Tomorrow, Friday. | ||
| And I'm hearing this announcement or something that Zelensky's coming back. | ||
| If he's going to mention, if this is about security guarantee, he cannot. | ||
| Security guarantees, the American people are going to be stuck in there financially forever. | ||
| It's like Vietnam, and we're going to have to have some sort of troop commitment or a backup to the British and the French. | ||
| They know exactly what they're doing. | ||
| Look at those hyenas right there, those jackals. | ||
| Do you think they care when they go to sleep at night? | ||
| There's 1.8 million people dead or wounded. | ||
| Do you think they care that parts of Ukraine looks like Dresden in 1945? | ||
| Do you think they care? | ||
| Because they do not. | ||
| These are vicious, cold, almost inhuman. | ||
| This is why President Trump, and for all the nice words of the Tayshak, he's still got those little digs in there. | ||
| Still got those little digs. | ||
| All the dead children in Gaza. | ||
| No, not talking about the terrorism that Israel's faced forever. | ||
| The Irish and the Palestinians are as tight, as thick as thieves. | ||
| The IRA was trained by the PLO. These guys are all part of the party of Davos. | ||
| The World Economic Forum, all of them. | ||
| Brussels. | ||
| owns the Irish political class lock, stock, and barrel. | ||
| And I hate to say that on the day we're going to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. | ||
| I don't give a damn, and I'm Irish. | ||
| Here's what I care about. | ||
| I care about the United States of America, and I care about the citizens of the United States of America, and what I most care about is the working class sons and daughters that are going to be the human shields, the hostages in a security deal in Ukraine. | ||
| We don't care if Ukraine's Europe... | ||
| Russian, Asian, name it. | ||
| We don't care. | ||
| Right there, this whole war, you know, thinking great thoughts. | ||
| You know, this is all about whether Ukraine's European nation. | ||
| Can you imagine that? | ||
| That you lose a man, you leave a man. | ||
| And here's what. | ||
| Did the parents of the 18-year-old to 26-years-old, did they figure this out? | ||
| Was it two or three times legislation came up? | ||
| Legislation came up? | ||
| In the parliament of, although not democratically elected, could God know when they had the last election. | ||
| The reason they can't have an election is Zelensky would be turfed out immediately. | ||
| Everybody knows that. | ||
| The parents said, no. | ||
| I'm not going to send my sons and daughters. | ||
| We're not going to send our sons and daughters to the churnal house that is eastern Ukraine. | ||
| It's not going to happen. | ||
| And yet we have spent... | ||
| $250, $350 billion to be skimmed by these crooks and these oligarchs. | ||
| And the arms are built, the Financial Times reports funneled back through Europe to terrorist gangs, to criminal gangs. | ||
| And they're going to sit right there. | ||
| This is all about whether, you know, European nation, dude, we don't care. | ||
| That'll be a short negotiation. | ||
| We could care less to figure it out. | ||
| If this is what Europe, by the way, if this is what Europe wants to do, and they're so big on Ukraine being a European nation, they put up the $800 billion that you talk about. | ||
| You talk a big game. | ||
| Britain, send your two combat divisions. | ||
| Starmer, you're a mini Winston Churchill, Sir Kier. | ||
| Go ahead and send it. | ||
| Do it. | ||
| Your country's broke. | ||
| You haven't invested in the Royal Navy. | ||
| You haven't invested in the British Army in decade after decade after decade after decade. | ||
| I'm not saying you try to pin it on Vice President Vance. | ||
| He never said anything and smeared the reputations or the courage or the valor of the British or the French army or the Royal Navy or the French Navy. | ||
| He never said anything about it. | ||
| What he was saying is that people haven't been in direct combat being a security force because the whole thing's a scam. | ||
| It's all about America's got to give a backup guarantee. | ||
| We're not going to do it. | ||
| This is sucker's play. | ||
| We're out of that business. | ||
| This is what America First means. | ||
| This is what hemispheric defense means. | ||
| You should understand something. | ||
| When you talk about Greenland and the way you cut off the Russian Navy, if you talk about Panama, the way you can block the Chinese from making the Caribbean a lake, if you saw the Mac Daddy on Drudge, and we have the Pacific, I call it the Pacific Desert, Clo Pascal. | ||
| She says it's the heartland of the country. | ||
| I kind of believe that. | ||
| The three island chains. | ||
| They weren't secure. | ||
| You throw in a shield. | ||
| I don't know if it's anti-ballistic missile. | ||
| Or you put in a shield like they have in Israel. | ||
| I don't know if we can afford it. | ||
| I don't know if it's technologically feasible. | ||
| But then we're hermetically sealed. | ||
| The Russian Navy is kind of our problem. | ||
| Hey, the Russian Army, that's the Europeans' problem. | ||
| Deal with it. | ||
| Put some money into defense because you have it. | ||
| You've depended upon the United States, the elites in Europe, who weren't with us in World War II. They just were not. | ||
| I can go through country by country. | ||
| I can talk political regime after political regime. | ||
| They were not. | ||
| The NATO allies were all after the fact. | ||
| After we bailed them out in World War I and they came back and bailed them out in World War II, the British and ourselves. | ||
| And now here we go again. | ||
| And they're just relentless. | ||
| You know, this is all about whether Ukraine is a European nation. | ||
| Dude, we don't give a damn. | ||
| Do not care. | ||
| Could care less. | ||
| Could care less. | ||
| The dead and wounded in Ukraine, do you think they care? | ||
| Back from the grave? | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| Do you think we give them a vote? | ||
| The Russian dead? | ||
| In the 21st century, this happened in the last couple of years. | ||
| You were there, you saw it, you saw these people, what they did. | ||
| What they promoted, the lies they told, the spin they told. | ||
| And we said on the very first, the eve of the war, that they were going to lead the Ukrainian people down the Primrose Path. | ||
| Professor Mersheimer at Chicago said they're going to lead them down the Primrose Path until it's inconvenient for them. | ||
| Then they're going to cut them off. | ||
| We never, ever wanted a Pentagon. | ||
| We said this would happen. | ||
| You would have dead and wounded everywhere and nothing would change. | ||
| The Donbass is going to stay Russian. | ||
| Crimea is going to stay Russian. | ||
| We've already talked about it in Riyadh. | ||
| They've already signed on to that. | ||
| And now they're saying, oh, the big thing you have to negotiate is all about a security guarantee. | ||
| We're not sending troops. | ||
| There's no security guarantee. | ||
| President Trump was adamant about that. | ||
| They told Zelensky, don't bring it up. | ||
| Whatever you do, don't bring it up. | ||
| He just pestered and pestered and pestered. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| He went to the Hay Adams, had the breakfast with the Democrats and the Republicans, the neocons in the Senate. | ||
| He was all puffed up. | ||
| Thought he had it. | ||
| What did Ray Dalio say? | ||
| I don't even have time to play that. | ||
| I'll play it tomorrow. | ||
| Money to support Ukraine and troops to support Ukraine. | ||
| We have to cut... | ||

I know what they're going to say now. | |
| Bannon's crazy. | ||
| This can't happen. | ||
| We have to have a trillion dollar defense budget. | ||
| No, we don't. | ||
| No, we don't. | ||
| There's no immutable law of physics that says that has to happen. | ||
| Hell, I was in the Pentagon as a junior officer. | ||
| I know how the system works. | ||
| Because it ain't changed in 50 years, and it's not going to change. | ||
| We've totally rethought, President Trump has totally rethought the geostrategic position in the United States. | ||
| I just said it right there, hemispheric defense. | ||
| And then you can pick and choose. | ||
| We're not retreating from the world. | ||
| We're in a smarter way thinking through our own defense, and then we can pick and choose at a time of our choosing, in a place of our choosing. | ||
| We don't have to be spread out over hell's half acre. | ||
| And if you take the Pacific, And the three island chains is actually the heartland. | ||
| You totally start to rethink geopolitics into a true naval strategy. | ||
| And we don't have to have a trillion dollars. | ||
| You know what we don't have to have? | ||
| Number one, we can't afford it. | ||
| I don't say that. | ||
| Ray Dalio says that. | ||
| One of the deans of Wall Street. | ||
| That we have to get down to 3% deficit to GDP, just like Scott Besson says. | ||
| That's under a trillion dollars. | ||
| How do you do it? | ||
| You get waste-front abuse, take some. | ||
| Increased taxes, take some. | ||
| Higher growth, take some. | ||
| Tariffs, take some. | ||
| They're all in. | ||
| Everything into the pot. | ||
| Let's go pot. | ||
| Give me that. | ||
| Give me some tariffs. | ||
| Give me some duties. | ||
| Give me some customs. | ||

| Tax financial transactions. | ||
| Hello? | ||
| Yes, Wall Street. | ||
| Tax financial transactions. | ||
| More. | ||
| But it's still going to be short. | ||
| You're eventually going to have to cut. | ||
| I know Iberia wants to cut social programs, yes. | ||
| Or the social programs has fat in it, yes. | ||
| Or social programs, too many of them, yes. | ||
| Are they going to be painful? | ||
| Yes, they are. | ||
| You have to cut defense. | ||
| And where you have to start cutting defense is in Ukraine. | ||
| We have to say, we can't send. | ||
| This is insanity. | ||
| This is insanity. | ||
| This is a breach of fiduciary obligation. | ||
